What is entropy? and unit for entropy

Entropy is the measure of randomness

j/k mol

2
New cards

Why is entropy temperature dependent?

`the higher the temperature, the more energetic the molecules, the greater the randomness, increase in entropy

3
New cards

What happens to the entropy when a reaction produces more gas molecules

Increase in entropy

New cards

If the change in G is negative, is the reaction spontaneous and what is the sign of H and S

The reaction is spontaneous and it is a negative enthalpy change and a positive entropy change

8
New cards

If the change in G is positive, is the reaction spontaneous what is the sign for H ad S

The reaction is non spontaneous and it is a positive enthalpy change and the entropy is negative
